What is First Aid?

This is summarised in most First Aid teaching practice as

• • The preservation of life
  • Alleviate suffering
  • Prevent further illness or injury
  • Promote recovery

I’m an employer.  Do my employees need to be qualified in First Aid?

If you are working in a low risk environment, with one or two other people, you may just need to maintain a well stocked first aid box and have someone take responsibility for it.

If however; you are working in an area which has identified risks, you probably need at least one qualified first aider.  Higher risk workplaces may also need a first aid station.

The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 state that employers must carry out a risk assessment to provide ‘adequate and appropriate’ equipment, facilities and personnel to ensure their employees receive immediate attention if they are injured or taken ill at work.  This is regardless of the number of employees or self employed people employed.

What is ‘adequate and appropriate’ depends on what work is carried out.

There is no requirement on employers to have first-aid provided for anyone other than employees.  However, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) strongly recommends that non-employees are included in an assessment of first-aid needs and that provision is also made for them.

The (HSE) published a useful fact sheet answering frequently asked questions about First Aid at Work and employers responsibilities.  If you are unsure of your responsibilities or would like more information on what the HSE say, please download the HSE fact sheet

Training options

Do you need training for several people?  If so then our ‘in house’ option might be for you.  There are advantages to us delivering training in your environment.  These include;

• First Aid training sessions tailored to your needs,
• training delivered in your working environment, under controlled conditions.  This of course, makes the course more relevant to your work situation
• team building opportunities, so that we develop inclusiveness
• collective training that results in a more confident workforce
• minimising your workplace abstractions

To summarise, our training solutions comprise either short courses, or courses in modular form, delivered over a period to suit your requirements.  For example; on consecutive Mondays, or at weekends etc.

Alternatively, you may of course attend one of our ‘open house’ programmes.  Open First Aid training qualifications and courses are held at various venues depending on demand
